Gasoline and diesel engines
When filling and topping up the engine oil level, pay special attention to ensure that the maximum permissible oil level is never exceeded. Otherwise, as a result of incomplete combustion, excess oil enters the catalytic converter and can damage the precious metal or completely destroy the converter.
Do not park your vehicle over dry leaves and grass. The exhaust system in the area of the catalytic converter is very hot and radiates heat even after the engine has stopped. Fire hazard!
